Sounds like you need:
1. To find and pay someone else to do the housework, cook, babysit etc.
2. A room for yourself. With a door you can choose whether to leave open or shut.
3. If the children are really unnecessarily unhelpful go on strike. On day when my sons were quite young I refused to cook the evening meal because they wouldn’t clear their mess. In the end my husband helped them raid the fridge but they never forgot and I never had to do it again.
As a mother and wife I’ve come to realise that I have as much right to have time for myself as anyone else has for themselves.
